Ancient Demonic Weapon, Untouched by Cause and Effect! (4K)

"I was being too attached to appearances."

Lu Changsheng continuously bestowed Ginseng Fruit Trees upon his Disciple three thousand years, yet the system offered no reward whatsoever. It truly proved Murphy's Law: the more unlucky a person is, the more unlucky they become.

It's like drawing cards in a game; if you're unlucky, you can't draw the desired card no matter what you try, and there's no guaranteed reward.

At this time, you must not get carried away.

Lu Changsheng paused for the time being, and then began to teach his disciples in a more Buddhist-like manner, no longer fixated on rewarding them with Ginseng Fruit Trees, but instead bestowing other treasures.

As for the Ginseng Fruit Tree, Lu Changsheng bestowed it upon them as a gift.

The disciples would occasionally descend the mountain for training, and the system would return their Merit.

The Heaven-Earth Mysterious Yellow Exquisite Pagoda changed from a 29-story Treasure Pagoda to a 30-story Treasure Pagoda, with its quality falling between that of Low-Grade Emperor Weapon and Mid-Grade Emperor Weapon.

The potential of Merit Law Treasures is extremely high, but their only drawback is that they require far too much Merit and their growth is extremely slow.

According to High Antiquity texts from the Taihua Sacred Ground, the High Antiquity Buddhas used a single Merit Law Treasure, combined with the Power of Faith from all beings, to create the Western Elysium Realm.

However, that Merit Law Treasure took hundreds of millions of years to accumulate the All Beings' Power of Faith to achieve such an effect.

I wonder when the Heaven-Earth Mysterious Yellow Exquisite Pagoda will reach that level.

Furthermore, Lu Changsheng's disciples, Lu Qinglian with the Merit Golden Lotus, Lin Qingzhi with the Myriad Beings Seal, Ji Xuan with the Primordial Chaos Bell, Chen Yi with the Eight Treasures Merit Pool of Merit Law Treasure, all need to accumulate Merit slowly.

Yuntai Peak began to shake again.

Another Disciple has achieved a breakthrough!

A monstrous Devil Qi enveloped the mountain peaks, as if Devil Master had descended upon the world.

A terrifyingly vast Devil Qi spread outwards.

The Servants of Yuntai Peak, as well as the bamboo demons and cranes, trembled with fear at the terrifying Devil Qi.

The vast and mighty Devil Qi stretched forty-nine thousand miles, not only enveloping Yuntai Peak but also affecting other peaks of the Taihua Sacred Ground.

The Taihua Sacred Ground was shrouded in Devil Qi, and the world was shrouded in darkness.

The Mountain-Guarding Formations of these mountains were thus activated.

The Elders and disciples of the many peaks of the Taihua Sacred Ground were terrified, and the colorful Formation was activated, creating a magnificent spectacle.

"Demon has attacked?"

The Elders of many mountains were alarmed and couldn't help but murmur among themselves.

The Taihua Sacred Ground has not been attacked by Demons for an unknown period of time.

Taihua Divine Mountain is, after all, one of the Human Race Holy Land. It is powerful and its foundation is unfathomable. Even other Holy Lands may not know the true extent of Taihua Divine Mountain's strength.

These Elders weren't even born when Taihua Divine Mountain was attacked last time.

"Please do not panic, everyone. This is the Saint's Disciple breaking through. Let's remove the Mountain-Guarding Formation."

Some Elders knew that Lu Changsheng had taken in a disciple who practiced Devil Cultivation Method, so they told everyone not to make a fuss.

"This disciple of the Saint is truly outrageous. He doesn't even have the Immortal Emperor Realm cultivation, yet he was able to attract such a massive amount of Devil Qi during his breakthrough."

The Elders found it incredible.

Generally speaking, those who possess such Devil Qi during a breakthrough are usually Great Demons.

Lin Xuantong and several elders were alarmed at the Rear Mountain of Taihua Sacred Ground.

The Household Ancestor Lin said, "Xuantong, do you know this person's background? This boy is no ordinary person."

Lin Xuantong nodded. "Liu Mufeng and I already know this person's exact identity. It's somewhat surprising that this young man is cultivating under the Changsheng Sect and has embarked on the righteous path. With his talent, it might be a good thing that he's joined our ranks, and he might even be able to influence the future."

The Jiang Clan Ancestor said, "But there's also the possibility of raising a tiger that will turn on us. This child has the potential to become an unparalleled Great Demon. If he grows up, he will be extremely difficult to deal with. If he falls into Demonic Fall in the future and turns to the Demon Realm, it will be irreversible."

The elders fell silent.

They already knew Dugu Aotian's background, but they were also conflicted about how to deal with Dugu Aotian.

Fortunately, Lu Changsheng can keep Dugu Aotian in check, so the problem isn't too serious for now.

Lu Changsheng's Personal Disciples quickly circulated their Cultivation Method to prevent the Devil Qi from encroaching.

Chen Yi's Buddha Light, resisting the Devil Qi; he was truly unafraid of Dugu Aotian's Devil Qi.

"My eleventh Disciple might have been Buddha with great Law Power powers in his previous life, otherwise he would Impervious to Ten Thousand Arts."

Lu Changsheng noticed that among these disciples, Chen Yi, the reincarnation of High Antiquity Buddha, easily resisted the Devil Qi.

The Devil Qi melted away as quickly as snow meeting sunlight when it encountered Chen Yi's Buddha Light.

Among all the disciples, Chen Yi was truly Dugu Aotian's nemesis.

Even Buddhas vary in strength; those capable of reincarnation are undoubtedly powerful Buddha from High Antiquity.

Dugu Aotian's Devil Qi was also quite terrifying, after all, he possessed the Devil Ancestor Dao Body.

Once the Devil Ancestor Dao Body is fully formed, commanding billions of Demon Soldiers Demon Generals, all the major Holy Lands will find it troublesome.

Lu Changsheng used his Purple Tenuity True Qi to protect the mountain peak and simultaneously Guardian Dugu Aotian.

Although cultivating Demon Sects Cultivation Method can lead to rapid progress, there is always the risk of qi deviation Qi Deviation with each breakthrough in cultivation level.

Lu Changsheng possesses numerous treasures that could potentially save Dugu Aotian from Qi Deviation.

This time, Dugu Aotian stayed at the peak of the Golden Immortal Realm for a long time, accumulating strength and then Qi Deviation. There were no signs of him going astray, and he successfully reached the Quasi-Emperor Realm.

The Devil Qi, stretching for forty-nine thousand miles, completely entered Dugu Aotian's body.

When Dugu Aotian opened his eyes, his sharp edge was fully revealed.

The Great Demon at the Quasi-Emperor Realm already possessed a hint of the aura of a demon ruling the world.

[Ding! Your Ninth Disciple, "Dugu Aotian," has advanced from the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm to the Quasi-Emperor Realm. You have received a reward for your Disciple's advancement: the High Antiquity Demon Soldier "Yuantu."]

Lu Changsheng was stunned for a moment after Dugu Aotian broke through.

This time, the system rewarded the disciple with a breakthrough not with Merit Law Treasures, nor with any other Law Treasures, but with a High Antiquity Demon Soldier!

What level of Law Treasure is this?

Lu Changsheng had never seen such a treasure before.

The system doesn't even display its grade.

Generally speaking, only special Merit Law Treasure Law Treasures with unknown upper limits, such as merit-based magical treasures, do not have a fixed grade.

This Demon Sects Law Treasure probably isn't Merit Law Treasure, is it?

No, how could Demon Sects Law Treasure require acts of charity and merit? Doesn't that contradict the principles of the Demon Sects sect?

The system rewarded the user with an unparalleled demonic Demon Sword.

This demonic Demon Sword was as black as ink, without any decorations or sword patterns; it was just a black Long Sword, and there was nothing special about it.

If an ordinary person or a Xiuzhenzhe level obtained this demonic Demon Sword, they might only think it was an ordinary Long Sword, just a bit harder.

But Lu Changsheng sensed a terrifying killing intent.

Staring at this peerless demonic Demon Sword, it was as if he were trapped in an endless sea of blood. The sharp killing intent emanating from the sea of blood made even an Immortal Emperor like Lu Changsheng feel a stinging pain in his soul.

"System, display its information."

Lu Changsheng called out, and the system indeed displayed simple information.

[Yuantu: High Antiquity Demon Soldier, requiring nourishment from Devil Qi and Blood Qi, capable of slaying heaven, earth, and all living beings without incurring Cause and Effect. Currently classified as Low-Grade Emperor Weapon.]

"Hiss..."

Lu Changsheng had seen so many treasures, but this was the first time he had ever seen Law Treasure that was untouched by Cause and Effect.

Without being entangled in Cause and Effect, killing will not diminish Merits, nor will it incur Cause and Effect retribution. Even the Great Expert cannot deduce the murderer through Cause and Effect and effect and destiny.

This High Antiquity Demon Soldier is practically an essential item for home, travel, murder, and robbery.

"Merit Law Treasures require the accumulation of the All Beings' Power of Faith, while High Antiquity Demon Soldier need to be nourished by Devil Qi and seas of blood, which are not suitable for me, as I lack Devil Qi. They are more suitable for Dugu Aotian."

Lu Changsheng tried his best to give each of his disciples a Merit Law Treasure.

Dugu Aotian possesses the Devil Ancestor Dao Body, making it impossible for him to use Merit Law Treasures. However, if this peerless demonic Demon Sword named "Yuantu" were to be imbued with the Devil Qi of the Devil Ancestor Dao Body and grow stronger, it would be no less than Supreme-Grade Merit Law Treasure.

The High Antiquity Demon Soldier "Yuantu" is said to kill heaven, earth, and all living beings. Its potential is not low, and it may even become Dugu Aotian's magic Dao-Proving Law Treasure.

"This time, the system returned a large number of Merit Law Treasures and High Antiquity Demon Soldier, all of which are perfectly suited to my disciple's attributes. Could this also be a deliberate arrangement by the system?"

Lu Changsheng pondered that the system's rewards of magical Law Treasures like the Myriad Beings Seal and the Primordial Chaos Bell might have ulterior motives.

"Aotian, come here to your master. I will impart my skills to you and give you a Dao-Proving Law Treasure."

Lu Changsheng's voice echoed in Dugu Aotian's mind.

"Good."

Dugu Aotian arrived at Lu Changsheng's cave abode, and as was customary, Lu Changsheng imparted his skills to Dugu Aotian.

[Ding! You have transferred 15 million Heavenly Cultivation Points to your Disciple, Dugu Aotian. Dugu Aotian actually received 3 million Heavenly Cultivation Points. You have received a 50x reward for mentoring a disciple: 150 million Heavenly Cultivation Points.]

Cool.

After his Disciple became Quasi-Immortal Emperor, the system would return a large amount of cultivation power to Lu Changsheng every time he transferred his power. This cultivation power had wonderful uses, such as repairing Law Treasures and cultivating the Primordial Ancient Thunder Dragon Primordial Spirit.

"Today, I will impart to you a High Antiquity Demon Soldier. This Demon Sword is no ordinary weapon; it kills without incurring Cause and Effect. It requires you to nourish it with Devil Qi and demonic blood to prove your Demonic Dao."

Lu Changsheng stretched out his right hand, and the High Antiquity Demon Soldier "Yuantu" appeared in his hand, which he handed to Dugu Aotian.

Dugu Aotian accepted the High Antiquity Demon Soldier with trembling hands.

The moment Dugu Aotian saw the black Long Sword, he could no longer look away.

This black Long Sword seemed to have been crafted just for him; Dugu Aotian even felt a resonance on a spiritual level.

"This disciple thanks Master for bestowing this treasure."

Dugu Aotian accepted the treasure and then refined it, a large amount of pure Devil Qi surging into the Yuantu Demon Sword.

Buzz!

Suddenly, the Yuantu Demon Soldier let out a Sword Cry, and a terrifying scene of mountains of corpses and seas of blood appeared before everyone in the Holy Land!

The Firmament were shrouded in the Blood Realm, countless Immortal Emperors and Great Expert falling within it, becoming nourishment for the sea. A majestic figure stood atop the ninth heaven, his long hair as black as ink, his black armor fluttering in the wind. With his back against the sea of blood, he clenched his fist, the boundless blood Blood Qi of the sea surging wildly into his body. At this moment, he was like the ruler of heaven and earth, unleashing a punch that shattered the void, Void a region, destroyed the grand formation, and caused countless magnificent nine-tiered Palaces to collapse and fall downwards...

"Break!"

Relying on his Innate Dao Body, Lu Changsheng immediately broke through the illusion after entering it, and his eyes regained their clarity.

Such a powerful Demon Sects Law Treasure.

Lu Changsheng felt a wave of fear wash over him.

This High Antiquity Demon Soldier, currently only Low-Grade Emperor Weapon, possesses astonishing power.

The scene I just witnessed... could it be that the Devil Master shattered the High Antiquity Heavenly Court with a single punch?

Could it be that the owner of this High Antiquity Demon Soldier was actually the fallen Devil Master?

If it's really as I predicted, the potential of this Demon Sword will be terrifying.

"Put this sword away, and do not use it at full power lightly, lest you attract attention. A common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime."

Lu Changsheng knew that if this High Antiquity Demon Soldier was indeed the Devil Master's magic Law Treasure, it would surely cause an unprecedented sensation.

According to Ancient Books of Taihua Sacred Ground, in High Antiquity times, the Devil Master clashed with the Heavenly Court. Together with the Demon Marshal, he led billions of Great Demons to attack the Heavenly Court, completely destroying the Ninety Thousand Heavens. In the end, the Devil Master was defeated and retreated into the Demonic Fall.

If the Great Expert of the Immortal Realm, especially the Heavenly Court, knew that Dugu Aotian Aotian such a High Antiquity Demon Soldier, they would most likely take action to eliminate him.

Lu Changsheng may believe that Dugu Aotian would not go astray, but these Great Expert may not.

For these Great Experts, eliminating threats before they have fully developed can resolve karmic Cause and Effect when necessary.

"Yes."

Dugu Aotian was also frightened by the power of the High Antiquity Demon Soldier, and immediately withdrew it into his body to slowly refine it.

Taihua Divine Mountain is, after all, Holy Land, and it is already an extraordinary favor from Lin Xuantong Dugu Aotian is allowed to cultivate here.

As the High Antiquity Demon Soldier "Yuantu" emitted its Sword Cry, Chen Yi's pupils turned golden as he gazed towards Lu Changsheng's cave abode.

It took a while for Chen Yi's pupils to return to their original color.

"It seems that memories of my past life are slowly awakening. My past life, my past life, I, Chen Yi, am not a person who clings to life and fears death, but I still have unfulfilled wishes. Even if you replace me, do not forget my wishes and the kindness I owe to my current master."

Chen Yi muttered to himself.

He learned from his master, Lu Changsheng, that he was the reincarnation of High Antiquity Buddha. After his past life memories were awakened, Chen Yi's memories of this life might disappear or they might merge.

Chen Yi wants to resurrect his parents, mentor, and Childhood Sweethearts, but his level of understanding is far from sufficient.

Dugu Aotian's breakthrough allowed Chen Yi's memories of his past life to gradually awaken.

"Senior Sister, even Ninth Junior Brother has broken through! We need to work harder too."

Ning Qianqian and Lu Qinglian were sparring. When they got tired, they sat under a tree and ate Ginseng Fruit. Cranes and Immortal Deer surrounded them, watching them eat with great relish.

If an ordinary crane Immortal Deer were to eat such a treasure as the Ginseng Fruit, it might transform into human form and thus attain enlightenment.

Lu Qinglian scratched her head. "Our physiques do improve more slowly."

Lu Qinglian's Martial King Divine Physique and Xiao Fan's Heaven-Conquering Tyrant Body both require Body Tempering in addition to Cultivation Practice Method and comprehending the Three Thousand Great Daos if they want to improve their cultivation levels.

The reason Xiao Fan became a useless person in the Xiao Household was because the Xiao Household Xiao Fan not provide him with heavenly materials and earthly treasures to Body Tempering, so Xiao Fan was always unable to break through.

Several of Lu Changsheng's Personal Disciples broke through to new heights, while Lu Qinglian and Xiao Fan lagged behind.

Because Chen Yi started learning the art the latest, even though he was a reincarnation of High Antiquity Buddha, he didn't catch up so quickly.

Ning Qianqian's cultivation level was significantly increased because Dragon Clan have long lifespans and slow growth rates. Lu Changsheng used a vast amount of rare and heavenly materials and earthly treasures to forcibly elevate Ning Qianqian's cultivation level.

In Lu Changsheng's cave abode, Lu Changsheng took out the Sixteenth Grade heavenly materials and earthly treasures "Demon Marshal Blood". He distributed this treasure as a reward for taking on disciples.

Some people died, but they weren't completely dead...
